Possible issue: Out of date output from svn help remove

2019-04-18 Thread Richard Cavell
Hello.  I believe that the output of svn help remove on my machine is out of date.  It says that each item is scheduled for deletion.  But this has been changed over the years as subversion has evolved.  Now, the item is deleted right away.  I'm not able to build svn on my current machine so I'm u

Difference between pre-commit and start-commit

Hi, folks, I apologize in advance for not being able to figure this out. What exactly is the difference between the pre-commit hook and the start-commit hook? Also, am I right in thinking that all I have to do to "install" such a hook is to write a script, or modify the existing template, and t

Re: SVN Usage Questions

2012-11-08 Thread Richard Cavell
Just my two cents, but I think that "release" should only refer to builds that have been shipped to the end-user and are in usage. Why not have a top-level directory: /build And if it's automated to build every night, it could have: /build/9 November 2012/... /build/8 November 2012/... /
